Cryptic / Neverwinter Issues & Leaver Penalty

I am network technician in co-location data center, so enough said about me.
Today I was disconnected from Neverwinter during a PVP Domination match. I had a continuous ping (ping -t 8.8.8.8) running before, during and after the disconnect from Neverwinter severs. There were no timeouts or any hint of latency.
When I logged back in, I was prevented from rejoining my session by a countdown timer that removed me from the match. Thereafter, I was banned from content for thirty minutes.
Regardless if the connection problem was with Neverwinter or within the local exchange carrier's network or an issue on my end, Cryptic has a system in place that requires everything to work flawlessly otherwise player get banned for 30 minutes.
Everyone should have the chance to rejoin the match.
If stupid game design prevents me from being entertained, I will tell the world about it.

It doesn't work like that 100% of the time. This is the third time I have been ejected by a countdown timer and banned for thirty minutes. It is really stupid to implement this penalty while it is possible for being ejected from the game for trying to reconnect.
Create a party, queue for a pvp match. Hopefully everybody gets tricked and accepts.
now the whole team has to play the match or they won't be able to queue for anything for 30 mins.
Brilliant, just brilliant. 30 mins, just wayyy too long...
